Preserve Open

I choose the circle not the square.

I want the bare bones of belongingnot the draperywhich holds dust in all its foldsmade of all my shed skin and dirtand yours too

How many more years will I witness winter treesfuzzing with leaf?their dark branching lines against England’s grey skies.These black bones supportthe muscles of my mind’s eye
